Chapter 6 DHCP Server
6.1 DHCP Server
DHCP (Dynamic Host Control Protocol) is used to assign an IP address to the computers
on the LAN/private network. When you enable the DHCP Server, the DHCP Server will
allocate automatically an unused IP address from the IP address pool to the requesting
computer when “Obtain an IP Address Automatically” is configured. You can specify the
start and end address of the IP Address pool here:

DHCP Server: Check
“Enable” to enable DHCP server.

IP Pool Start/End Address: Enter the range of IP addresses for the DHCP server
to distribute.

Lease time: The valid time of the Dynamic IP address which is distributed to the
DHCP
client’s host computer by your Medialink router’s DHCP server. During this
time, the server will not distribute the IP address to any other connected device.
6.2 DHCP Client List
DHCP client list displays user device
’s IP Address, MAC address, host name and other
information which are assigned by the DHCP server. You can manually enter the IP and
MAC address and convert them to static assignment.
